Cevallos
rings
bell to
remember
those lost
Three ceremonies
held to pay respects
to the victims of
tragedies
by Michael Davalos
Managing Editor
At 8:46 a.m., 30 KU faculty members stood with their heads down and
hands cupped together as President F.
Javier Cevallos rang the bell outside
Old Main to honor those who lost
their lives in the Sept. 11 attacks.
"These students are recognized as
the Sept. 11 generation," Cevallos
said. "They have grown up with this.
Just like many of the faculty were
marked by the JFK Assassination."
No students were in attendance
for neither the 8:46 nor the 9:03 a.m.
ringing of the bell. Some walked by
and stared at the group, but none
stayed to watch. Students did not arrive until the 11 a.m. meeting on the
lawn outside of the McFarland Student Union Building.
"I know we all have memories of
that tragic day," Cevallos said. Between the two bells ringing, members of the faculty traded stories of
the tragedy. One woman chose not
to speak, but listening to the stories
brought tears to her eyes.
"My daughters' husbands' brother
died in the World Trade Center. They
have since started the Bosco family
Scholarship in his honor." Associate Vice President for University
Advancement John Green said. He
pointed out how despite the tragedy,
a positive outcome was achieved.
The meeting outside of the SUB
took place in front of a tree that was
planted in 2002 to commemorate
the five KU alumni that died in the
Sept. 11 attack. A Brass Ensemble
performed to introduce the speakers, while 35 faculty members and 20
students waited for the ceremony to
begin.
"We are to celebrate Remembrance
Day," Cevallos said. "A couple of
years ago, we decided to not only
honor those lost on Sept. 11, but also
those of tragic events of violence."
According to Cevallos, the tragic
events leading up to the change in
remembrance has direct relation to
the KU community with two student
deaths since 2007. Those students

were Kyle Quinn, who was murdered
in 2007 and most recently Michael
Nusca, who died in a motorcycle accident in 2009.
A 15-second silence was held after
Cevallos spoke.
"Out of tragedy, great things happen," KU Chief of Police John Dillon
said. "With Kyle Quinn, KuBOK was
created. And when Michael Nusca
passed away, a scholarship was created."
One speaker, Ben Brooks, attempted to put the graveness of the situation into perspective for people who
did not have a direct connection with
the attack. "They will never get to do
the things we get to do with our families," Brooks said. "There will be no
little league baseball games. We need
to remember that."

Spuds Charity jar

The stolen charity jar
was raising money
to find a cure for
Fibromatosis
by Colin Holmes
News Editor
This past Friday night, a charity
jar was stolen from Spuds restaurant.
The charity jar was raising money for
Austin Conrad, who has been suffering from a rare type of tumor called
fibromatosis since he was 10 years
old.
The charity jar was eventually
found and returned to Spuds on Sunday by KU student Ronnie Nase.
Kay la Conrad, an employee of
Spuds and Austin's sister, stated, "My
family and I greatly appreciate what
that man did. It means a lot to my
brother Austin and the family. There
is still good honest people out there."
Nase was unavailable to comment
on his return of the jar.
"There is no cure for this tumor, so
he decided to start raising money for
a cure," Conrad said. "We have raised
over $54,000 so far."
The Conrad family tries to bring attention to the search for a fibromatosis
cure in a variety of ways, including
the charity jars and "a walk each year
at the Kutztown fairgrounds to help
raise more money," Conrad said.
"My family was hurt when we
found out it was stolen. It's sad for
people to steal money from a charity
jar."
This is not the first time a Conrad
Charity jar was stolen. According to
Conrad, "We also had one stolen earlier this year from the Airport Diner.
That one was never returned."
